[alt text: three images side-by-side. The first image on the left is the infamous photo of Elon Musk in a bathing suit, which shows that his torso has unusually sharp angles. The second image (in the middle) is a sketch of this photo, which exaggerates the size of and sharp angles of Musk’s torso while shrinking the size of his head and legs. In this sketch, Musk’s body somewhat resembles the shape of the Tesla Cybertruck. The third and final image on the right is another sketch of Musk’s torso, which is a cutaway of the previous sketch. The cutaway reveals that in this sketch, Musk’s body is a robot being piloted by a much smaller, infantile body, with the head of this smaller body sticking out of the top and serving as the head of the robot body. The Tesla logo is shown in the bottom right corner of this image, but the word “Tesla” has been replaced by the word “Torso”, still in the same font as the Tesla logo.]

    Any second Kuato is going to pop out, but instead of being a revolutionary from Mars, he’ll be sporting a cute little red cap and spout meaningless tech bro jargon.

      He probably commissioned it specifically to transform the appearance of his flabby-old-rich-guy torso into the very form of high-tech postapocalyptic hypermasculinity or some similar nonsense.

      we only make fun of it because Musk is evil. if you’re out there and your body sort of looks like this and you aren’t Elon Musk, know that your body is valid and normal and hot! I went from skinny twink to dad bod over the course of the past few years, and I have no shame. Just do what you can to take care of your meat suit - as long as you’re doing that, the shape doesn’t matter.

        Absolutely.
        Now that I think of it there must be someone out there with the same name - how do they cope?

        I’d like to shed my meat suit. Never been a fan of having one, much less now that it’s failing… 😞
